"what seems to be troubling you, young one?" her voice was silky, sweet and soft as she inquired about his problems. the pretty molly had always been able to sense what he was feeling. really, she was his only true friend, as he had been an outcast most of his life. but now he was becoming more known within the tribe. he didn't know how to feel about that.

"have you heard of the rogue who has come to join?"

"why of course, little one. everybody from here to the pinkplace could probably hear of your entrance with that rogue," aspen swirl teased, rising from her nest to sit beside his small form.

He suddenly jumps up when he sees Aspen swirl come out of the den but quickly looks away almost ashamed of himself for some reason. But he gathered enough strength and began to speak “ hello?” He says quietly “ are you.... Lone diggers mother or...” he trails off a bit
